    Aero Premier Half Belt Review

    Good review, many thanks. The Premier line is definitely a trim fitting pattern but you have the frame to take it, wear it well, it suits you.

    My first jacket worthy of this lounge, just joined - AERO!

    Great find, great fit, somehow I doubt it will be your last Aero. Welcome to the lounge.

    First Aero!!! Battered Tan Teamster

    Excellent fit on both jackets!

    Has anyone tried Aero factory visit/tour?

    Doylum - Nice story, thanks for sharing - you’ll love the revisit when it’s all going on. It was back in 2014 when I last visited, a very long drive for me but well worth it - it’s very rare these days to be amongst true crafts people at work. Enjoy and please report back.

    Break in at Aero

    Very very sorry to hear this. 110 jackets sound way beyond opertunist tea leaves, but where are they going to off load them? They might shift a couple to mates or a few down the pub, but unless they have been stolen to order, they'll have to move them online - eyes peeled!

    Favorite Forum Member Jacket

    Very sorry, just can't do it - name one and you risk upsetting many others. I can think of many outstanding jackets posted on his forum over the years - the ones that stand out for me are the jackets that just really suit the wearer.

    Aero Sunburst in "Red Fox"

    That's a beauty, first time I've seen this hide, rich colour and a nice change from the usual seal brown. Would love to see how medium steerhide breaks in, could be very special.

    Himel Bros Kensington

    Good choice, nice leather, would love to see it again when it's broken in.

    My Aero Premier Halfbelt just arrived...

    Very nice halfbelt, length looks right for 30's pattern and I particularly like the look of the back. I'd probably need a tad more length in the sleeves, but that's just a personal thing. As to making the body slimmer, if it was a lighter weight hide it might work but reducing the Premier...

    Can you shape a Deerskin collar with the HWT?

    Agreed, tried it on my Kudu Pioneer, which is similar, held it's shape for a short while but soon relaxed - just too soft and pliable.

    HIMEL BROS "CHEVALIER"

    Stunning jacket, looks beautifully made and great fit too.

    Horse Hide Jerky?

    I had a new Aero mid weight russet jerky half belt but I let it go. The hide was nice enough but the finish had a almost painted look about it and even after much wetting I could never get the collar to hold a shape.

    New jacket: Vanson x Thurston Bros. Gambler

    Very nice, fit looks great and really like the half belt. Looks like some some serious breaking in is in order!
  18. Cooperson

    Seeking fit feedback

    I'd say it looks perfectly normal. To get a really unrestricted easy arm reach forward you would have to have a lot more hide in in back panel which would billow out when the arms were at rest. Just enjoy, the reach will ease a bit with wear.

    Custom russet vincenza bootlegger

    Great fit, looks the business!

    Aero Vicenza HH Bootlegger

    Comfortable jackets get worn, picture perfect but uncomfortable ones stay on the hanger and get looked at. Wear it and enjoy it!
